Chapter 3015: Chapter 3035: I’ve been unhappy with you for a long time!
The situation on the frontline battlefield was somewhat better than Lin Chen had anticipated. Despite the defense line being breached, the War God Mansion being penetrated, and the army collapsing disastrously, for some unknown reason, after the Demon World army entered the Immortal Realm, aside from the Immortal Emperor and the Demon Emperor whose whereabouts remained unknown, Cheng Tuo also did not make a move.
The Crimson Immortal Domain had enough strategic depth. Although the battle line had previously collapsed, the main reason was that many Quasi-Saints suffered heavy losses in the Devil Flame Swallowing Heaven Formation. Even though they escaped back, they had incurred injuries and were temporarily unable to fight at full strength.
The Immortal Realm immediately treated these Quasi-Saints upon their return, restoring their combat power. Coupled with the Quasi-Saints who had been stationed there and those who arrived later to support, they were finally able to directly counter the impact of the Demon World’s army.
By stopping the Demon World’s Quasi-Saints, naturally, the Immortal Realm’s army also stopped the Demon World’s army. The situation of the collapsing Immortal Realm has been maintained without further deterioration, but the battlefield had expanded by an unknown multiple than before.
Besides their main force, who were still entangled with the main force of the Immortal Realm in fierce battle, countless small Demon Race teams had spread out like locusts, extending throughout the entire Crimson Immortal Domain.
A blessing in disguise, I suppose!
Lin Chen quickly received the information on the Immortal Realm powerhouses collected by the Demon World. After scanning it, he frowned.
The information was very general and vague, but upon careful thought, since the previous twenty-seven battles ended with the Demon Race being forced to retreat, it seemed reasonable for the data collection to be imprecise.
In the information, besides the Saints of the Immortal Realm, it mentioned one Saint.
The Mixed Element Saint!
During one of the battles between the two realms, the Demon Emperor and his disciple exerted pressure on the Immortal Realm which the Immortal Emperor seemed unable to suppress. At the critical moment, the Mixed Element Saint appeared and helped the Immortal Emperor suppress the situation.
The battle between the four Saints did not break out, and the Mixed Element Saint only showed up that one time. As for the data on the Mixed Element Saint, sorry, there is none!
Seeing this message, Lin Chen felt slightly relieved.
Alright, the Saints of the Immortal Realm were not completely uninvolved. In times of crisis, they had indeed taken action.
After reviewing all the information, Lin Chen’s already unhurried mood became even more tranquil.
Anyway, the Immortal Demon Channel was permanently secured, and blowing it up was impossible, so who knows how long this war between Immortals and Demons will last. Then why should I be in a hurry to return?
On the battlefield, killing members of the Demon Race was considered a military achievement, and leading my people to slay the Demon Race in the Demon World, entangling them, was equally a military achievement. There’s no difference.
"Alright, handle this, let’s go."
Bai Manmei summoned the staff, returning the related documents.
As the staff member carrying the documents was leaving, they were stopped by a white-haired old man.
"Is Bai Manmei inside?"
"Yes."
The White-haired Elder frowned, "Wasn’t she ordered to handle affairs in Demon Mountain City? How did she appear in Feixue City... How many people are with her?"
"Two, and there’s one person with a hood covering their body, identity unknown."
The White-haired Elder’s gaze became even more peculiar, "Where is her loyal dog? Hmm, isn’t there a middle-aged man in leather armor always by her side?"
"No."
The White-haired Elder looked suspiciously, "What is she doing here?"
"Checking information."
The White-haired Elder pressed further, "What information was she checking?"
The staff answered honestly as they dared not refuse, for the white-haired old man was Lu Sen, the Inspector from the Mercenary Union headquarters, whose status was on par with Bai Manmei’s.
Lu Sen’s gaze grew even more suspicious, but he did not inquire further and waved the staff member away.
Lu Sen stood with his hands behind his back, gazing into the distance, his face fluctuating between shades of contemplation.
What was this woman doing, not working on the frontline in Demon Mountain City, but coming to Feixue City alone, and bringing someone whose identity was concealed by a hood?
With her status, she would have already known many pieces of information. So why did she need to check them?
Checking the records of the Demon Race saints, quasi-saints, and major forces?
Looking at the front-line battle reports?
Who would check such intelligence?
The loyal subordinate she always kept by her side is actually not around?
There’s a problem with Bai Manmei!
I need to check!
With a flicker of his figure, Lu Sen disappeared on the spot.
Not long after Lu Sen left, Bai Manmei walked out of the room with Lin Chen, calmly leaving.
Lu Sen stood atop a high building, his eyes fixed on the water mirror in front of him, showing the figures of Bai Manmei and Lin Chen.
Staring at the image in the water mirror, Lu Sen’s eyes revealed surprise, followed instantly by a smile tinted with malevolence.
Although the figure was concealed and the face unseen, it was discernible that it was a male, obviously not a child since he could access so much information. He must be an adult!
Although not every male member of the Demon Race is over two meters tall, and some are shorter, Lu Sen was more inclined to believe that the man by Bai Manmei’s side was of the Human Clan!
Bai Manmei colluding with the Human Clan?
Heh, that’s quite regrettable!
This woman, relying on her astonishing combat power granted by the time divine ability, looks down upon everyone. Besides the seven members of the Round Table Meeting, she gives no face to anyone, arrogant to the extreme.
As long as I catch her, your position as an Inspector is in jeopardy!
I’ve been displeased with you for a long time!
Lu Sen made up his mind to take advantage of this opportunity to turn the tables and deal a harsh blow to Bai Manmei.
However, this woman indeed possesses great strength. To catch a thief and his loot, I must capture that suspected Human Clan guy, and I must be cautious of Bai Manmei’s retaliation. Otherwise, if this matter passes without evidence, wouldn’t it be her word against mine?
I need to bring more people!
The next second, Lu Sen had already vanished from the spot.
...
Lin Chen followed behind Bai Manmei and arrived at West City, where a huge Domain Gate towering into the clouds stood.
Inside the Domain Gate, stars twinkled as though connected to the cosmos.
Above the Domain Gate, numerous runes flickered with changing radiance, enigmatic and unpredictable.
Outside the Domain Gate, many powerhouses were stationed, and without close perception, Lin Chen could feel the presence of at least a dozen breaths comparable to a Superior Prime Daluo Immortal’s strength wafting unpredictably.
"What would happen if this Domain Gate were destroyed?"
Bai Manmei glanced at the Domain Gate and replied, "Nothing much, we’d just refine a new one. As long as the coordinates align, it’ll be the same as before."
Seeing the Domain Gate before him, Lin Chen suddenly remembered the Demon Race he encountered in the Bitter Sea Immortal Domain and immediately asked, "Before the opening of the Immortal Demon Channel, there were demons stranded in the Immortal Realm, planning to establish a Teleportation Gate to welcome the demon army directly into the depths of the Immortal Realm. Do you know about this?"
Bai Manmei’s expression showed surprise, "They succeeded?"
Lin Chen nodded, "They succeeded, but unfortunately, it fell short. The Sacrificial Altar Teleportation Gate was almost completed before it was discovered. Everything was destroyed, and the quasi-saint leading the team was eliminated by a joint pursuit of many powerhouses."
Bai Manmei nodded, "I heard one of the senior management of the Round Table Meeting mention this plan. It seemed that before the overlapping of the planes, a quasi-saint proficient in space supernatural abilities found some clues. After investigation, it was speculated that it might be possible to use space teleportation to send people to the Immortal Realm, but there was no absolute certainty, so only a group of people were dispatched experimentally by a quasi-saint to be sent out."
"If the teleportation was successful and the Teleportation Gate established, then when the Immortal Demon Channel opens, this side could launch a diversionary attack, while the real offensive would come from the direction of the Teleportation Gate..."
